CarbonMatch

AI-Powered Environmental Data Matching for Product Carbon Footprints

Match Your Bill of Materials to Verified Emission Data

CarbonMatch is an AI-driven environmental data matching tool, built upon a collaboration with the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), that automatically connects your Bill of Materials (BOM) components to trusted lifecycle assessment (LCA) datasets like Ecoinvent – enabling fast, consistent, and auditable Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) calculations.

The Problem CarbonMatch Solves

Accurate PCF calculation requires reliable emissions data for every component.
While supplier PCFs are improving, many components still lack primary data.
As a result, sustainability teams must manually match BOM components to secondary LCA datasets
– a slow, inconsistent, and unscalable process.

Warning indicating challenges in manual PCF data matching
Manual dataset search requires significant effort per component

Warning indicating challenges in manual PCF data matching
Matching quality depends on individual expertise

Repeated work for identical components across BOMs

How CarbonMatch Works

  1. Upload Your BOM
    Upload your Bill of Materials (XLSX). CarbonMatch extracts component IDs, names, and -if available- descriptions and material data.

  2. AI Context Enrichment
    The AI builds a clear component understanding by combining your BOM data with automated web research (e.g. technical datasheets and specifications), generating a robust semantic component description.

  3. Environmental Data Matching
    CarbonMatch performs a AI-based similarity search across verified LCA databases such as Ecoinvent and returns up to 5 ranked dataset matches per component.

  4. Review, Confirm, or Rematch
    Review suggestions, compare alternatives, or add missing information. If needed, trigger a rematch using your additional input to improve accuracy.

  5. Reuse & Calculate
    Confirmed matches are stored in a reusable component library. Existing components are matched automatically in future BOMs, enabling fast, consistent PCF calculation and audit-ready reporting.
